So no reason, just a weird game mechanic?
Eating fruit makes you "stronger" - one "strong" action per piece of fruit eaten. it has its benefits. Like if you eat a piece of fruit then use a shovel on a tree you can pick up the entire tree and replant it elsewhere to save having to wait for it to regrow.

Next to the ketchup...
Been playing this with my youngest since release. A throughly enjoyable little distraction from the current state the world's in.

Museum and shop and done, first bridge built, 3 new houses placed, and one set of interior and exterior items done :) My only complaint is I would love a quicker way to get iron, sad times when the rocks only drop a couple for the whole day!

Redeem Nook Miles ticket and go to a deserted island. You'll find 3 rocks there minimum :) - I've been mining iron nuggets this way, I've got maybe 60 in stock lol

Found my first island last night with a non-native fruit. So naturally did the western thing and pillaged it of all it's trees, rocks, flowers and even people (invited obviously)

Think I managed to bring back about 10 trees to the Island which will make a great dent in the ability to pay off the crook Tom Nook :p

Got my museum and shop yesterday. And hopefully my first of 3 villagers houses have been built, as I laid the foundations yesterday afternoon (won’t find out til I get home at 2)

can’t remember who I invited. :D

found wisp last night and Harvey too.

Edit. We need more pictures :)

Museum built. It's HUGE (and pretty much empty!). Shop open though I was up earlier than 8AM so couldn't get in! Tom has just had his first phone conversation with one of my visitors so that should be happening soon.

I am being sent home today to 'work from home'. Better start earning those Nook miles!

I also did the same. Went to an island yesterday which had Cherries (my native is Oranges) - and there wasn't much bug life so thought sod it, took the island for all its worth and brought back as many trees as I could + their fallen fruit. Even ditched tools for it :D - got back and planted maybe 15 cherry trees? Each Cherry should sell for 500 Bells (as apposed to 100 Bells for oranges) - 500 x 3 x 15 = 22.5k per harvest. Handy considering I now have a 550k debt with that monster :p

How often does the fruit respawn? Does anyone know?

Anyone else thinking that their island is too small.
I want trees of each fruit that alone will use a lot of space up.

Going to try and plant say 4 or 5 of each tree in rows I think.

You will be able to terraform later though I don't know if that allows you to increase its size.

I didn't realise this about non-native fruit prices. I have a million peach trees all full of fruit. I'll have a harvest later. Omg so many chores to do! :p

Nice!

I do have a ton of creatures, fish and fossils in storage but I haven't had a chance to donate them yet. Grr@real life!

Hehe in the 2 days I was waiting for the Museum to be built I was keeping 1 of everything and putting it in storage in my place. On opening day I rocked up with full pockets and offloaded it to Blathers :D - he was "all a-flutter" :p :D

Still a bit sparse for my liking, but its going to take time. :)
